I love Hunter very much. I love the choice of stamping colors. It looks very cool.Colour #4... Green:
This is a base of Zoya Hunter and accent nail Color Club This Is Tree-mendous with some stamping from the Pueen 52 plate with Konad Pop Green and Coral Blue. Tree-mendous is my favourite aspect of this, I think.

Thanks! I like seeing Hunter in the photo; it seems really flattering. But when I wore it hubby thought it was black and didn't like it. I have to wear more really deep colours this fall so he gets accustomed to them or something... but I guess in a way they don't totally suit my personality, so I understand that part. I think they completely work for me when I've stamped or varied them in some way, but I do have the sense that a really deep colour unadorned on me is more 'edgy' than I am. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />I love Hunter very much.

They're all so impressive; it's amazing the amount of detail you can get with the hand-painting! I really love the crayon/colouring book mani with the wrapper and crayon end colours so wonderfully matched! I like the water marble mani with the colours as they are, though I would likely enjoy it with two colours too. And the half moon stickers - they look so sharp! I don't find the wee wrinkles very distracting.I got lazy and haven't posted my last few mani's. I've done them all so far and on the day of so I am happy with my progress.
Here are the ones I have done

Half moons. Used L'Oreal stickers. They curved and got all icky so I blurred the pic.(on IG not here unfortunately you can see how bad it was)

Galaxies were Guardians of the Galaxy complete with Awesome Mix Vol 1 and Star Lord mask. I used Rainbow Honey Asteroid B over Zoya Payton for the galaxy design. Asteroid B is pretty much a galaxy in a bottle I love it. I used acrylic paints for the mask and the stamping didn't exactly work out what was in my mind but again I did these all on the day I was supposed to have posted so I ran out of time.

Watermarble using some Essie. I wish I would have just used the blue and green. Of course to try and salvage it I used China Glaze Fairy Dust

Based on a color... I did a coloring book and crayons

Favorite nails of the challenge so far it's inspired by a song... Mackelmore and Ryan Lewis "Thrift Shop"
Yay! Congratulations; that is really impressive! I love your tutorial, /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> fashion inspired by your purse, and nails you love Roughles manis especially! I'm still slowly plugging along on this - I'll have to post a few soon. But it's fun to have a specific reason to use certain polishes.I finished the challenge and it feels incredible. I managed to do each one every day. Here are the ones I didn't post yet.
Inspired by a movie. I did the Veggie Tales Jonah. I promised my mom I would do the pirates who don't do anything.
Inspired by a book nails were by the upcoming Sophie Kinsella novel Shopaholic to the Stars.
Inspired by fashion I used my purse.

Inspired by a pattern. I did chevron stamping. This one was on an existing mani.
Inspired by artwork I chose Marsden Hartley Portrait of a German Officer.
Inspired by a flag used the city flag for Chicago.
Supernatural is when pigs fly.
Tutorial. I wasn't inspired by any tutorial so I did my own.

And finally nails that you love. I recreated the nails Meghan Trainor had on in the video for All About the Base. I used the Nicole by OPI Rougles to do it.

I'm proud of myself for trying to use different polishes each time too. I didn't always work that way but I have been on a no buy for like 2 months and it was nice having a reason to use a lot of untrieds and polishes I may have only used once or twice before.Yay!

That is great! I am impressed with your self-control on the no-buy; you're doing fantastically with that, and shopping from your own stash is great! The new collections are always so tempting; but the general reality is that you'll (I'll/many of us will) have something fairly similar most of the time. I should make it a goal to use the untrieds in the rest of this challenge. Sometimes I end up using polishes I've used many times before only because I think of them since I have experience with what they look like; they come to mind when I'm sorting through ideas for the theme. I also have not created swatches for my polishes - I'd have to consult the list, sort through the box, or look them up online.I'm proud of myself for trying to use different polishes each time too.

In love with that mani those dots are perfection! Glad I was able to inspire you.Style #11... Polka Dots:
I was inspired when I saw Zoya Hazel worn by @@JC327 with some nail art on thread lately. It looked so gorgeous I wanted to be sure to wear it soon. That was September; I guess soon is all relative. I also really like the Frozen-inspired one by @jessrose18. It's purely coincidental we both used Over The Moon with it; I guess they're made to be together! Here Zoya Hazel is the base; the first blue dots are OPI Suzi Says Feng Shui. I used Color Club Over The Moon for the other 'first dots'.

Then I played around some more with a dotting tool and did double-dots with black and white.
